• We had a great weekend up at the cabin.  Carpet had been laid before we got there around 2 am Saturday, so there was a nice clean place to put everything.  Serra~V~ had a hard time settling down after being cooped up in the car for 6 1/2 hours.  We didn’t sleep much.  Saturday, Brian worked all day with everyone else, and they got most all the Pergo laid on the main level.  What a difference it makes on the level of dirt.  The ladies of the group kept track of the kids most of the day, and kept the boys fed and watered.  

  
  

  Everyone was there from the Anderson group except for Holly, so I have included a few pictures of what has been done.  There are major improvements.

  
  

  Sunday morning before we left, Eric and Brian helped Dwaine with a leak in the roof and drywalling the basement.  There is still a lot to get done but it looks as though we will close it up for the winter after next weekend. 

  
  

  The drive back was hard on Serra~V~ even though she had Grandma in the back keeping her company.  Brian got serious dirty looks when he put her back in the seat after a gas station stop. 

  
  

  

  
  

  This is the master bedroom. It is pretty big but the camera doesn’t zoom out at all.  But you can see all the nice wood and carpet. 

  
  

  

  
  

  Here is view out of one of the upstairs windows.  And to the right is looking at the main room with the floor laid.

  
  

  

  
  

  Two different kitchen angles.  Camping takes on a whole new meaning when you have a fridge, microwave, stove…basically a completely working kitchen.

  
  

  Here is the old wood stove.  You can see where the floor stops and the firewood closet.  This is all in the main room. Above it is the loft, which now had carpet as well.  Next year when it is all done we will get some better pictures, but  for now this will have to do.

  
  

  

  
  

  

  
  

  Maiah and Serra are 6 months apart and are definitely buddies.  They would play together and giggle at each other. 

  
  

  

  
  

  Here are all three girls.  They were all giggling at each other and then Maiah decided to touch Serra’s face.  It made her fall over. 

  
  

  

  
  

  Serra in her winter gear and Grandma in heaven with her two youngest. 

  
  

  Here are some cute ones of Erica.  She knows what she likes.  Honey-nut Cheerios and Chocolate glazed donuts.
